There is nothing in this work I love more than not having to wake up at 5:30 every day to get to work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-home-for-the-summer#post-2564997 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 07:20:36 +0000 fancyfunction 2564997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm excited b/c my husband's a teacher and is off too! We try to always make a summer list of fun activities to do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-home-for-the-summer#post-2564965 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 06:32:21 +0000 Charm54 2564965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mostly excited. We have lots of things planned in the summer and are always on the go. We had a great time last summer. The only catch is DH has been working loooonnnggg hours lately so it can make for a challenging solo dinner/bedtime when I've been alone all day with 2 kids.</p> <p> Daycare is thinking of offering a one day a week Activity Day so that would be a perfect balance...I'm crossing my fingers that they do! If not I will probably get a high school kid to come over a few hours a week to watch both girls so I can do groceries ... Or go to the beach solo lol 😎 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-home-for-the-summer#post-2564958 Fri, 10 Jun 2016 05:55:02 +0000 delight 2564958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love that DD is home with us in the summer! DH and I both have July and August off because we work in schools, so she is in a daycare that runs on a school schedule too. I just plan lots of activities to get us out of the house. We do the library, picnics, parks, splash pads and lots of play dates. We also spend a couple of weeks up at the cottage. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-home-for-the-summer#post-2564625 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 16:27:25 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2564625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I can't wait for school to be out next week so DD1 can be home all summer! I love it when she's home. She keeps the baby busy. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-home-for-the-summer#post-2564623 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 16:26:41 +0000 MrsSRS 2564623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We aim for a schedule. For example, Mondays are usually library, Tuesdays and Thursdays are usually pool, Wednesdays and Fridays are usually park or zoo with friends. Some art time and book time everyday, etc... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-home-for-the-summer#post-2564596 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 15:59:22 +0000 sorrycharlie 2564596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She wasn't in school but I'll answer anyway, lol!</p> <p>It's totally different weather now here (in New England) so I'm kind of looking forward to summer! We can do a lot more that we really couldn't before - beach, parks and zoos more readily, my mom's pool, more outside time, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-is-home-for-the-summer#post-2564591 Thu, 09 Jun 2016 15:53:09 +0000 Bao 2564591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you looking forward to them being home all summer? Do you know how you will keep them busy? Or are you dreading entertaining them all summer? </p> <p>I'm feeling a mix of excitement and dread, only because school gave LO that bit of structure she needed and helped keep her busy. As long as I come up with ways to keep them busy I think I'll be ok ;) </p>
